Of course then it won't be long until TP companies triple their prices to compensate for this long on their end, but that's the fun thing about capitalism: given enough time, everyone can lose!

You say that but I feel like we're only a couple years from seeing automated TP dispensers that dole out tightly-rationed squares.
Won't that mean everyone is walking around with shitty assholes, you might ask... And yes, yes I think it will. Which would make it sound impossible, until I tell you that corporations could reduce TP costs and improve their profits by 0.0001%; now it practically sounds like a shareholder mandate!
I was kinda with this dude's argument until 8:45, where he lost me enormously.
I'm still mourning the loss of ICQ
Damn, and here I was thinking we left all of the garbage like this comment and poster back on Reddit.
Guess we really can't have shit in Detroit
Ew, choke on leather, boot-licker
It's literally just a Japanese-style square lidded bread pan.

Fr; I have a tiny CRZ coupe, but when I fold the back buckets down I can fit a tremendous amount of stuff in my car, even awkward and unwieldy-shaped things
Also it's an arms race. They feel safer because they're comparatively above smaller cars, but then when everyone is riding tall trucks that additional feeling of safety becomes moot as you no longer have the additional height/visibility over everyone else.
And conversely, the reason they feel less safe in smaller cars is because of the comparison to larger cars on the road. They aren't solving anything in a larger vehicle, they're just perpetuating onto others what gave them small-vehicle anxiety in the first place.
The whole concept is stupid, basically.
Fr though kei trucks are sexy as fuck
The only good guys in this conflict are the innocent uninvolved citizens on all sides. Aside from that, everyone involved, including those on the ground on the conflict, those in the situation rooms, and those both funding and manipulating the situation from outside are all the bad guys.
Anyone who tries to paint this as a simple moral conclusion, and not as one part in one of the most complicated and difficult geopolitical situations on the entire planet, is either an idiot or part of a propaganda campaign, knowingly or not. These trite oversimplifications are insultingly reductive to the situation, do nothing to help any of the actual potential victims, and only serve to foster both misinformed reductive thinking and harmful attitudes towards groups without the full context to reconcile these impressions.
There is an information war being waged by many forces on all sides of this conflict right now; be wary of anyone who encourages reductive thinking on complex issues when lives are on the line.
See it's funny because we name things after other things
